Abstract
A flat acoustic resin insulator (A) is one-shot molded, with a sound absorbing structure composed of a rigid-connected combination of a plurality of independent sound absorbing cells each constituted with a mold cavity (C) defined by a rigid lateral wall (E), a rigid bottom wall (F), and a vibratory top surface layer (H), and an opening (B) formed through the surface layer (H) for acoustic external communication of the mold cavity (C). The opening (B) cooperates with the mold cavity (C) to serve for resonance absorption of sounds, and the surface layer (H) covering the mold cavity (C) serves for film-vibratory absorption of sounds. Characteristic curves of the resonance sound-absorption and the film-vibratory sound-absorption have their peaks at different audible frequencies and their slopes overlapping therebetween, with a superimposed sound-absorbing effect over a wide frequency range.
